Friends:
Today takes me back to Truong Lam(1), a hamlet on the Bong Son Plain. I get there almost every day, but the visit is never as intense as on this day.
During my time with B Company, Ten December was our darkest tragedy, and for the survivors, it was B Company's finest hour.
For those of us who lived, the words "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends..." will ever have special meaning.
I invite you all to spend a silent moment giving thanks to those brave American soldiers who, forty-two years ago, sacrificed all they could so that the rest of us might live free.
Dick Guthrie

Just so you know, I thank you for your service and I am thankful for all those who died so that we may have our freedom (my husband was one of them). I pray for all of you who are still with us, for the families of those who are not, and for those serving today. Carolyn
